What is reading :: Word Recognition, Reading Comprehension

What is education?At a very pop the question age, when I first bring outed to read words, I was excited because I was now a reader but was I really nurture or just lifting words off paper? Even though this is necessary for translation, reading is more complex than just recognizing words. The reader has to check sense of the words base and their context. While engaged in reading, the front knowledge is activated along with personal connection, ideas, and opinions. Unfortunately, children will develop reading problems if they do get the necessary stills that will allow them to function on a higher level and succeed in life. Jennings, Caldwell and Lerner (2010) mentioned that it is said that Children must(prenominal) learn to read so that later they can read to learn (pg. 4). Therefore reading is the foundation that children need to be successful in life.Jennings, Caldwell and Lerner (2010) advised that to help children read better and develop a sexual love for reading, f all on the laps of the teaching professionals since they are the planner and implementation of instructional services (pg. 3). It is understandable that even though there are contrastive levels of readers, the ultimate goal is for teachers to create good readers in children. Jennings, Caldwell and Lerner (2010) iterate that reading is making sense of text. The reader generates his or her own mental translation of what is been read (pg. 13). In my field experience, I have seen children who could read all word off paper but had no opinion of what is red ink on in the story. I have also experienced teachers getting frustrated when their students are not able to decipher or decrypt words in context or make connection to text. Jennings, Caldwell and Lerner (2010) talked some the three elements of reading. There is the reader, the reading material and the reading situation. The reader pass is super active while making sense of the material and creating a version that will fit into the reader scheme (pg. 13). As I think back on Jennings, Caldwell and Lerners observation, I can imagine reading about a Niagara Falls at a preadolescent age in Jamaica, West Indies and not knowing what Niagara Falls looks like, I construction in my mind that it looked like Dunns River fall in Jamaica. Years later I realized Dunns River Fall cannot be compare to Niagara Falls.
